< 2 Siangpahrang 1 >
1 Ahab a due hnukkhu, Moab ram teh Isarel siangpahrang ni a tuk.
Then, after the death of Ahab, Moab transgressed against Israel.
2 Ahaziah siangpahrang teh, Samaria kho amae imvan hoi a bo teh, a hmâ a ca. Patounenaw a patoun teh, ahni koevah cet awh haw. Ekron cathut Baalzebub koe hete hmâ ka ca e dawk hoi kahawi thai nahanelah pacei awh haw telah atipouh.
And Ahaziah fell down through the lattices of his upper room, which he had in Samaria, and he was injured. And he sent messengers, saying to them, “Go, consult Beelzebub, the god of Ekron, as to whether I may be able to survive this infirmity of mine.”
3 Hateiteh BAWIPA kalvantami niyah, Tishbit tami Elijah koevah, thaw nateh Samaria kho e siangpahrang ni a patounenaw kâhmo hanelah cet haw, ahnimouh koevah, Isarel ram Cathut ao hoeh dawk maw, Ekron cathut Baalzebub koevah, pouknae pacei hanelah na cei awh vaw.
And an Angel of the Lord spoke to Elijah, the Tishbite, saying: “Rise up, and ascend to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria. And you shall say to them: ‘Is there not a God in Israel, so that you would go to consult Beelzebub, the god of Ekron?
4 BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei pouh. Ikhun dawk na luen hoi na kum mahoeh toe. Na due roeroe han telah a dei, telah atipouh teh, Elijah teh a cei.
For this reason, thus says the Lord: From the bed to which you have ascended, you shall not descend. Instead, dying you shall die.’” And Elijah went away.
5 A patounenaw bout a ban awh teh, bangkongmaw na ban telah atipouh.
And the messengers returned to Ahaziah. And he said to them, “Why have you returned?”
6 Ahnimouh ni ahni koevah tami buet touh kaimouh kâhmo hanlah a tho teh, kaimouh koehoi cet leih, na kapatounkung siangpahrang koevah ban leih, ahni koe BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei. Isarel ram vah Cathut ao hoeh dawk maw, Ekron cathut Baalzebub pacei hanlah na patoun. Ikhun dawk na luen teh na kum mahoeh toe na due roeroe han.
But they responded to him: “A man met us, and he said to us: ‘Go, and return to the king who sent you. And you shall say to him: Thus says the Lord: Is it because there was no God in Israel that you are sending to consult Beelzebub, the god of Ekron? Therefore, from the bed to which you have ascended, you shall not descend. Instead, dying you shall die.’”
7 Hettelah dei pouh awh telah na ti pouh han, ati. Siangpahrang ni nangmanaw dawn hanlah ka tho e het patetlah ka dei e hah apimaw, atipouh.
And he said to them: “What was the appearance and dress of that man, who met you and who spoke these words?”
8 Ahnimouh ni phaivuen kâkhu ni teh a keng dawk phaivuen taisawm kâyeng e doeh atipouh. Ahni teh Tishbit tami Elijah doeh atipouh.
So they said, “A hairy man, with a belt of leather wrapping his waist.” And he said, “It is Elijah, the Tishbite.”
9 Hahoi teh Siangpahrang ni ransa 50 touh kaukkung hoi a uk e taminaw a patoun teh, ahnimouh koe a takhang. Khenhaw! ama teh mon vah a tahung. Ahnimanaw ni nang Cathut e tami siangpahrang ni nang ca thuk loe ati atipouh awh.
And he sent to him a leader of fifty, with the fifty who were under him. And he ascended to him, sitting at the top of a hill, and he said, “Man of God, the king commanded that you should descend.”
10 Elijah ni a pato e teh, ransa 50 touh ka uk e koevah, Cathut e tami ka tho katang boipawiteh, kalvan hoi hmai bawt naseh, nang hoi na uk e tami 50 touh hah be kang naseh atipouh. Hahoi kalvan hoi hmai a bo teh ama hoi a tami 50 touh hmai koung a kak awh.
And responding, Elijah said to the leader of fifty, “If I am a man of God, let fire from heaven descend and devour you and your fifty.” And then fire from heaven descended and devoured him and the fifty who were with him.
11 Hahoi ahni koe alouke ransa 50 touh kaukkung hoi a uk e naw bout a patoun. Nang Cathut e tami siangpahrang ni karanglah ca thuk naseh ati telah atipouh awh.
And again, he sent to him another leader of fifty, and the fifty with him. And he said to him, “Man of God, thus says the king: Hurry, descend.”
12 Elijah ni ahnimouh koe, Cathut e tami lah kaawm katang pawiteh, kalvan hoi hmai bawt naseh, nang hoi na taminaw 50 touh hah be kang naseh atipouh. Hahoi kalvan hoi hmai bout a bo teh ama hoi a taminaw 50 touh hmai koung a kak awh.
Responding, Elijah said, “If I am a man of God, let fire from heaven descend and devour you and your fifty.” And fire from heaven descended and devoured him and his fifty.
13 Hahoi alouke ransa 50 touh kaukkung hoi a uk e naw bout a patoun, ransa 50 touh kaukkung teh ahni koe a ceitakhang teh, Elijah hmalah khokpakhu a cuengkhuem teh, a hmalah oe Cathut e tami ka hringnae hoi na sannaw tami 50 touh e hringnae heh, na mithmu vah sungren naseh.
Again, he sent a third leader of fifty men and the fifty who were with him. And when he had arrived, he bent his knees before Elijah, and he pleaded with him, and said: “Man of God, do not choose to despise my life and the lives of your servants who are with me.
14 Khenhaw! kalvan hoi hmai a bo teh, ransa 50 touh kaukkung kahni touh hoi a uk e 100 touh hoi koung a kak nakunghai kai ka hringnae teh na mithmu vah na hlung pouh loe telah a kâhei.
Behold, fire from heaven descended and devoured the two previous leaders of fifty and the fifties who were with them. But now I beg you to take pity on my life.”
15 Hahoi BAWIPA kalvantami ni Elijah koevah cet nateh taket hanh, atipouh. Hahoi a thaw teh siangpahrang koevah a cei.
Then the Angel of the Lord spoke to Elijah, saying, “Descend with him; fear not.” And so, he arose and descended with him to the king.
16 BAWIPA Cathut ni a dei e teh Ekron cathut Baalzebub koe pouknae na hei hane patounenaw na patoun e hah Isarel ram pouknae hei hanelah Cathut ao hoeh dawk maw. Hatdawkvah ikhun dawk na luennae koehoi na kum mahoeh toe na due roeroe han atipouh.
And he said to him: “Thus says the Lord: Because you sent messengers to consult Beelzebub, the god of Ekron, as if there were no God in Israel, from whom you would be able to seek a word, therefore, from the bed to which you have ascended, you shall not descend. Instead, dying you shall die.”
17 Elijah ni patuen a dei e BAWIPA e lawk patetlah ahni teh a due. Ca tongpa a tawn hoeh dawkvah, Judah siangpahrang Jehoshaphat capa Jehoram a bawinae kum navah, Joram teh a yueng lah siangpahrang a tawk.
And so he died, in accord with the word of the Lord, which Elijah spoke. And Jehoram, his brother, reigned in his place, in the second year of Jehoram, the son of Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah. For he had no son.
18 Ahaziah ni a tawksaknae thung dawkvah ka cawi rae hoi a sak tangcoung e naw teh Isarel siangpahrangnaw setouknae cauk dawkvah thut lah ao nahoehmaw.
But the rest of the words of Ahaziah that he worked, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
